You need to file a petition for child support modification and income investigation with the court. It will take some time, but the result may be in your and the child's favor.
However, the court may consider your income also and is it necessary and do your child need more money before they initiate any action.
Yes, its child support. If the money is not used to support the child then its being misused. Alimony would be to support you. If the father is looking after the child, then he should not be paying child support to the mother - she doesn't have the cost of looking after the child at that time. In fact, the mother may well be in a position to send chilod support to the father - it goes both ways and she is responsible for the child just as much as the father is.
You sue the person for child support. Just because you pay child support for one child does not mean you can not receive child support for the one you have custody of.
What do you think it is for, just what is says, CHILD SUPPORT
Just ask child support enforcement for it to be done.
No.

Each state has its own rules for the use of child support money, but one thing in common among all states is that the money is to be used for the benefit or betterment of that child. Uses that are acceptable include food, clothing, school supplies, medicine, and maintaining a safe dwelling place. Taking the money and giving it to someone else might be fraud or it might not. The non-custodial parent has just about zero say in how child support money is spent. If, however, you are paying child support and the child is still living in poverty, you need to bring that up as an issue with family court. If you know specifics of how the money is misused, you might have a chance at getting support or custody arrangements changed. You cannot stop paying your child support just because you are angry at how it is spent, but you do have the family court as a means of making sense of it all.
The money should go to the child so if he/she does not live with the guardian anymore you should probably go to court so the person he/she lives with/is the guardian, can take care of the money for him/her. If the current guardian does not live with him/her but the money still goes to the child there should be no problem and you continue paying for your child. I imagine that if the child live by him/herself there are bills that needs to be paid and if the child support is used for that it is used for the right purpose. Your responsibility as a parent has not stopped just because the child moves. Child support does not stop until the child is an adult.
You need to contact an attorney or legal aid in your state. Massachusetts just ruled that child support obligations survive death. If the estate has enough money to continue paying the support, the parent cannot disinherit the minor child to stop child support payments after death.
The child support goes to the one who have custody. If the grandparent still do and the child has just moved out temporarily, they will still get it. If the child is under 18 and has moved they also still get it unless the child is emancipated. If the child is 18 the child support generally end but it depends on the state laws and/or what you have written in the child support agreement.
For your sake, I hope she's willing to repeat that story to the judge.
Child support is tracked by the federal government, not just the various states. On a personal note, you should be catching up on child support since that is more important than traveling. It is not just the money, it is the support of the child(ren) that you chose to bring into the world. Don't let them down.
